Version 2.15.2
==============

Released May 15, 2006

General

 - Remove all suspend-to-{x} terminology in the code and documentation
in favour of hibernate and suspend
( http://live.gnome.org/GnomePowerManager/SleepNames )
 - Update the FAQ URL. #330889

Power Manager

 - Allow the use of GtkStatusIcon as eggtrayicon is depreciated.
 - Ensure we set the icon to visible for battery-less desktops, as
before we had to sometimes toggle the state in g-p-p to get it to show.
 - Make sure we only set the icon if it is different to the one already
   displayed to fix the case where the icons get renamed on package
upgrade. #340557.
 - Add support for the new HAL key laptop_panel.brightness_in_hardware
to properly support key brightness changing on IBM X31 laptops. #340231.
 - Do not warn multiple times about the critical action. #333622.
 - Add the ability to handle a transparent background in the tray icon.
   #341227 (Peter Grundstr� - Fix the GPM_BUTTON_BRIGHT_UP_DEP and GPM_BUTTON_BRIGHT_DOWN_DEP
values to what were shipped in the HAL 0.5.7 tarball.
 - Slightly re-work a patch from Paul Betts to handle broken batteries
that report they are neither charging or discharging by using ac_adaptor
value instead.
 - Remove the --sm-disable from the .desktop file in autostart since it
breaks the logout dialog (e.g. on power button) if it is not run with
session access. lp:31103 and #339168
 - Rework the way throttling is done so that it properly ref-counted and
remove the compatibility with the old g-s API. #340024 (William Jon
McCann)

Power Preferences

 - Add the new checkboxes to set the low power mode policy. #340355

Power Info

 - Make sure the time scale cannot be less than 10 minutes as smaller
values show the approximation errors in the event-logging code. #340217.
 - Compute the legend width using Cairo instead of hard-coding it.
#340218.
 - Correct a format string so we don't sometimes crash on ppc platform.
#339974
 - Add more description in the event log, for why we do particular
actions.
